Overview

The IgA Asian Foods Panel measures IgA antibody responses to 96 foods commonly used in Asian cooking. Covers Asian-diet staples including white rice, soy bean, sesame, ginger, bok choy, and a range of seafood and regional proteins that standard Western panels often miss.

IgA antibodies reflect gut-level immune activity. Elevated IgA to specific Asian foods may be relevant when investigating digestive symptoms, though results should guide supervised elimination trials rather than serve as a standalone diagnosis.

This test suits people who regularly eat Asian cuisine and have unexplained digestive symptoms, those who tested negative on standard panels but still have ongoing issues, and anyone wanting Asian-specific food sensitivity assessment.

Symptoms

Suited for people who regularly eat Asian cuisine and experience digestive symptoms, those who had normal results on standard food panels but still have ongoing issues, or anyone wanting Asian-specific food sensitivity assessment.

Questions

Asian cuisine uses unique ingredients such as soy bean, sesame, ginger, bok choy, specific rice varieties, and a range of regional proteins and seafood that standard Western food panels may not cover.
If you regularly eat Asian foods and had negative results on standard panels but still have symptoms, Asian-specific testing may identify triggers those panels missed.
Fermentation changes protein structures and creates new compounds. Some people react to fermented versions of foods they tolerate in unfermented form.
Yes. Identifying specific triggers lets you avoid problematic foods while continuing to enjoy the many Asian ingredients that do not cause reactions.
This varies by individual, but soy products, certain rice varieties, sesame, ginger, and bok choy are sometimes identified as reactive in people with Asian dietary patterns.
No. Anyone who regularly eats Asian cuisine can benefit, regardless of ethnic background.

How to prepare

No fasting required. Continue eating your normal diet including Asian foods so the test reflects current exposures. Avoid antihistamines for 48 hours before collection. Collect the blood spot sample using the provided allergy card and post it back promptly.

After the test

Discuss your results with a healthcare provider familiar with Asian dietary patterns. A supervised elimination of high-reactive foods for 4 to 6 weeks, followed by systematic reintroduction, can help identify true triggers while maintaining nutritional balance with alternative ingredients. Keep in mind that using antibody results to guide food elimination is a contested approach rather than settled practice, so make any dietary changes with your provider rather than on your own.

Your test results will be available in your private dashboard. If there are any urgent issues, we'll let you know so you can follow up with your health professional.

Understanding results

Results show IgA antibody levels for each of the 96 Asian foods tested, categorised as normal, borderline, or elevated. Elevated IgA to specific foods suggests your gut's immune system has responded to those foods, but does not confirm they are causing your symptoms. Discuss your results with a healthcare provider who can guide culturally appropriate dietary modifications.

Adam O. ACT

Simple health checks in my control

I didn't know that private blood tests were an option. Tried this platform as the packages suited what I wanted for a good price. Easy to follow instructions, and super quick results. Platform provides more information than my gp's ever have on the tests and what the results meant. Would like more clinics to be able to test at (specifically Capital Pathology) but there is a decent network. Will continue to use.

"I'm a little biased as I work here! However, I love that The Bloody Good Test tracks my health over time. After turning 40, I wanted to make sure I wasn't going to drop dead from something basic I should have known about earlier. Measuring all my core biomarkers each year gives me peace of mind my health is on the right track"
